DaveK 0 Posted June 14, 2007 What happens when the balljoint snaps? Does the car die a horrible and gruesome death when the wheel falls off and you plough into a fence/wall/hedge/tree/barrier/pedestrian :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richie-Van-GTi 71 2 Cars Posted June 14, 2007 pretty much, depends on your reaction to the scenario and speed your doing etc. Never snapped a ball joint but had them pop apart before whilstdriving. Very loud bang and suddenly the front end drops. luckily I was in straight line slow speed mode. Even so, its scary yet controlable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jrod 7 Posted June 15, 2007 Yes, apparently the joints fail really quickly on bumpy roads. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
